House Hunters

I'm going to share something with you. I am in love. With a house. I've been watching it every day since it was posted online, which was 55 days ago. H. can tell you that I bring it up every day. I love it. And it's so cheap, so there must be something wrong with it, right?

When I first saw the house posted, I decided to put some hexes on it, some voodoo, hire a poltergeist, etc. so that nobody else would buy it. And it worked because nobody has bought it. And then, this past week, the price went down by $20k, which caused me to write an email to H. with the subject line: "OOOOHHHHMMMMMMYYYYYYYYGOODDDDDDDDDD".

H. says he is worried about what will happen when someone (else) buys this house - he thinks I'm going to have a nervous breakdown or something, and he is probably right. What do I like so much about this little grey vixen? Well, for one thing it is cute and grey. Is that a good reason to buy a house?

For seconds I really love the white fireplace.

And then there is the teeny dining room, which needs a paint job, but has nice windows and possibly cute built-ins:

And lastly, I love it for its wildernessy backyard, in which I can imagine hosting many a barbecue.

﻿We have never seen the house in person, and there aren't any photos of the bedrooms, bathrooms or upstairs, so there is most definitely something wrong with it, and that's why it is so cheap. Right? By cheap, I mean cheap - currently $219k. I'm hoping to pay it a visit next month, at which time my head will explode with excitement.
